Is CompX International Inc overvalued?

What is the price target of CompX International Inc (CIX)?
The 12-month analyst consensus target is $38.00, about 32.9% above the current $28.59. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.
What is the intrinsic value of CompX International Inc (CIX)?
Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $15.16, a -61.8% margin of safety versus today's $28.59. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A negative reading means the price is running ahead of that conservative estimate, leaving little downside cushion if growth slows.
